What types of promotional drinkware can you order?
The right item depends on where it will be used and how long you want your logo kept in sight. A bottle that goes to the gym and the office every day gets seen far more often than a cup handed out once at an expo, so it is worth matching the item to the job. The table compares the main types, using specifications from the product pages.

| Stainless steel vacuum bottles and cups | Fluid Vacuum 500ml Bottle AVANTI, Carry Cup Newport Double Wall Vacuum Tumbler 350ml | Fluid Vacuum: 18/8 stainless steel, double wall, BPA free | Laser engraving |

If one item has to do the most work, we'd point you to a double wall stainless steel bottle, because the finish survives a bag and a car boot and people keep it for years. You'll find those among our vacuum flasks, with lighter steel and aluminium styles in promotional drink bottles. Desk and commuter use suits branded tumblers or mugs and cups, and reusable keep cups fit cafe-style give-aways. For summer events, custom stubby holders and cooler bags are what people actually hold and carry, and hip flasks are a classic executive gift.
How do you put a logo on drinkware?
The material decides the method, and our artwork team confirms the choice on your proof before anything is made. These are the ones we use most:
- Laser engraving removes a thin layer of finish from stainless steel, so the mark is permanent and needs no ink, although it comes out as one tone set by the metal.
- Pad print presses ink onto curved plastic, aluminium and glass with good precision, but the area is small and the colour count is usually low.
- Screen print suits bigger solid-colour logos, including a wrap-around on a bottle, and each colour adds setup. Our screen printing service page explains how it works.
- Sublimation dyes full-colour artwork into coated ceramic mugs and neoprene stubby holders, so photos and gradients are fine.
- UV digital print gives full colour on hard surfaces without paying for a setup per colour, which helps on short runs.
For steel bottles we'd choose engraving every time, since there is no print to scratch off and it looks like a gift rather than a giveaway. A multi-colour logo is better on plastic or ceramic with print or sublimation.
How does ordering work?
You can order any number you like, because there is no minimum, so a cafe can brand twelve mugs and a conference can brand a thousand bottles. You'll get a free digital proof first, and nothing goes into production until you approve it. Some stocked orders can be ready the same day, though bulk custom made glass and stainless steel usually comes by sea and can take up to about 6 weeks, which is worth knowing before you pick an event date. Many products show quantity pricing on the product page, and the quote confirms your branded price.
Who buys branded drinkware, and what do they get from it?
New starters often find a bottle and a mug in their welcome pack, and they use both at their desk daily. We can pack them with a notebook or tote through our kitting service, and promotional bags pair well with a bottle for events.
At expos and community days, reusable bottles and stubby holders get filled and carried around the venue, so your logo is seen by people who never visited your stand, and again at the next barbecue or match.
For client thank-yous, an engraved steel bottle or glass tumbler stays on a desk for years, which a cheap giveaway rarely does. Browse corporate gifts for more ideas, and book early for Christmas because production slots fill from September.
What should you check before ordering?
Read the care line on the product page first. The Swift tumbler is hand wash only and not recommended for hot drinks, and the Mocha mug is recommended hand wash. Describe a bottle as BPA free or dishwasher safe in your own marketing only where its product page says so, and supply artwork you own or have permission to use.
Ready to start? Use the instant enquiry form at the top of this page or call 1300 247 766. You can upload a logo, describe your idea or ask us to get in touch, and you're welcome to visit our Annandale showroom by arrangement to handle samples.
Frequently asked questions
Which decoration is best for a stainless steel bottle?
Laser engraving is the usual choice for stainless steel bottles. It cuts the logo into the finish, so there is no ink to peel, scratch or wash off, and the result is a single tone set by the steel. If you need colour on a steel bottle, ask about UV digital print. The proof shows which option suits your bottle.
How big can a logo be on a bottle or tumbler?
Print area is set by the item, because curved walls limit how much of the logo can be flat to the pad. The Thunder 600ml aluminium bottle lists pad print at 40 x 80 mm and wrap screen print at 120 x 100 mm. The Swift PET tumbler lists pad print at 35 x 30 mm. The proof shows your logo at actual size.
Can drinkware have a full-colour or wrap-around design?
Yes, on the right items. Sublimation gives full colour on coated ceramic mugs and neoprene stubby holders, and the Thunder 600ml lists a wrap-around screen print. Screen print wraps use spot colours only and every colour adds setup. For photos or gradients on bottles and tumblers, ask about UV digital print instead.
Will a printed logo survive washing or a dishwasher?
Engraving is permanent, while printed logos last best when the item is washed by hand. The Swift tumbler is hand wash only, and the Mocha mug and CamelBak Chute Mag bottle are recommended hand wash, so check each product page. If the drinkware will go through a commercial dishwasher, tell your account manager when you ask for the quote.
What logo file do I need for engraving or pad print?
A vector file is best for both: AI, EPS, SVG or a vector PDF, with fonts converted to outlines. Engraving and pad print need clean single-colour shapes with no fine gradients. A logo copied from a website or email signature is usually too low in resolution and may need redrawing, which the artwork team can do and confirm per job.
Is there a minimum order for promotional drinkware?
There is no minimum order on drinkware, stocked or custom made, so twelve mugs for a cafe is fine. Each order carries a one-off logo setup, which is why the cost per mug or bottle falls as the quantity rises. Your quote shows the quantity breaks and the total.
How long does branded drinkware take?
Some stocked, decorated orders can be ready the same day, and the quote confirms timing. Custom made drinkware is not stocked. Bulk glass and stainless steel usually travels by sea, taking up to about 6 weeks, to keep the unit price down. Rush production is available on most items, but it costs more and narrows the choice of product.
What should I check on a drinkware sample?
Check the lid seal by turning the bottle upside down over a sink, then feel the weight and finish of the wall. Look at how crisp the engraving or print is on the curved surface. We can arrange an undecorated sample, cost confirmed with the quote and credited back if you order. You can also handle items at the Annandale showroom by arrangement.
How can I get the best price on branded bottles and mugs?
Order around 10 or more so the setup cost spreads, and choose a one-colour print or a single position. Combining items into one order helps, as does a longer lead time, since rush costs the most. Mixed colours of one bottle or mug still count together toward quantity pricing. The quote lists decoration costs separately.
Can I mix bottle colours or different drinkware in one order?
Yes. Colours of the same bottle or mug can be mixed and the whole order counts toward quantity pricing, with light colours sharing one dark logo version and dark colours a light one. You can also combine different items for one event, such as bottles with stubby holders. Tell us the split and the quote will show it.
